I'd pull 12 degrees and read the plugs from there. The 2 degree for every 50shot is a crock. I'm on a 150 and she needs 9 degrees pulled. I have a Z06 but same basic motor. Start with a safer tune and adjust from there. Especially with that CAM/

I would run a NGK Br8ef gapped around .33 You want to stick with a non-projected tip plug, the iridium plugs aren't the best for spray. Also the #8 plug I suggested will give you a little more room fro error.

BR7EF plugs gapped at .33

timing is 15 - 17 total timing depending on the RPM and MAP.

Start with a 100-shot. Work your way up to 200 carefully.

Plugs the tip were the timing mark should be should be slightly before the bend,color of the tip golden brownish thats were u want it to be. the porcealean should be white any color on that means your running rich.Any signs of detonation will be a speckled color on the porcealan,or melted tip.I thoght you were spraying the car with the smaller shots already,but like said take your time and work your way up it will be worth the patience.Your car should put up some good #'s
